Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing requirements

On 1 January 2021, the Electronic Fiscal Receipting and Invoicing Solution (EFRIS) entered into force in Uganda. Businesses use EFRIS to their issuance of receipts and invoices for tax purposes.

As of 1 January 2021, a person who conducts business and is registered for VAT purposes is required to issue an e-invoice or receipt for any sales transaction regardless of whether the sales transaction is subject to VAT at a standard rate, zero rate or VAT exempt.
